Step off the mainland and join young Jake and his friends as they spend their summer on an isolated sandy peninsula in historic Plymouth Harbor. Explore Gurnet Lighthouse and tragic shipwrecks as you travel the same paths that the Pilgrims followed. Hearken back to simpler times when a fishing rod, a skim board and a cozy beach fire could provide enough entertainment for the entire summer. Enjoy the daily adventures that await anyone willing to seek them. Follow along as they struggle with the new-found uncertainties of adolescence, as well as the age-old questions vexing all of us. 'Ripples' combines one part 'Tom Sawyer' with one part 'The Talisman' and sprinkles it with local history in the tradition of a Dan Brown novel. The result is an entertaining story that may leave you reconsidering your definition of what's really possible.
